With floated hardwood floors, high ceilings, and an asymmetrical floor plan, Silverlake Recording Studios’ tracking room sounds great and is a relaxed comfortable place to work.
The floated hardwood floor and high ceiling of our main room make it a great place to track drums, full bands, small string ensembles, horn sections, or multiple voice over artists at once.
The open floor plan, inspired by the production techniques of today’s top producers brings the artist into the recording process. With the artist and engineer in the same room there is a synergy that helps you capture your best performances.

We were astounded at the excellent quality of RadHaus.Studio’s work on our live-stream show. 3 stationary cameras, one roving camera, beautiful lights, completely professional sound on voices and piano.
We had an internet audience of over 7,000 people and there were so many compliments in the conversation about the camera work, with everyone asking us “Wow! What kind of cameras were those? What kind of mics? That was amazing!” They also took care of all the internet work so we didn’t have to think about it. What a professional company.

Our panels are constructed with a wood frame for sturdiness and wrapped tight for a professional, square look. We use an audio translucent fabric and Roxul mineral wool insulation that have ideal sound absorption qualities.
We install a wood frame on the back that leaves an air gap between the wall and insulation, improving the absorption of low frequencies. The panels hang easily on the wall like a picture frame.
Our panels can be taken down in seconds if you want to experiment with the sound of the room while tracking drums, for example.
